Lean On Your Peers Lyrics

Lean On Your Peers lyrics

On sleepless nights down in the laundrymat



Watching the clothes, ghosts playing tit for tat 



We light a joint, talk about our old friends 



Dead or alive our stories never end 







Turn it over, look on the back page 



There's Johnny GoGo looks like he'll never age 



Sits in the Park House, drinking beer and landing flies 



Just after noon, waiting for the trouble boys. 







CHORUS 







That's just the way it is here 



No less and no more severe 



That's just the way it is here 



So pull up your socks and lean on your peers 







Did you hear about Hank? 



Booze rotted out his liver 



Gray and depressed, 



He gave his wife the finger 



What about his kid, 



What about his ex-wife 



Ask themselves the same thing when they turn out the lights 







I still remember the first time I saw him sing 



2 black eyes, from a knuckle and a biker's ring 



climbing up the speakers, hanging from The Balla rafters 



Hamilton punk king swinging to his own disaster 







CHORUS.... 







Pattie couldn't make it



She jumped right out the window 



3 floors down cuz they cut off her cable 



Dan took the same fall 



Fire ball on Hunter Street 



Landed on the sidewalk 



Looked just like a chicken wing 







It was a heartfelt night it was raining 



Tim told us the whole story 



Hanging at the gas station 



I never wanted to hear that description 



But now I know what is and isn't fiction 







CHORUS X2
